Maybe they can get 0.7 mpg if the aerodynamicist mentioned on this site
isn't full of stinking diesel.
A 20% reduction in drag is supposed to result in a 10% improvement in fuel
economy.

Well yeah, going from 6 to 7 mpg is like a 16% improvement. That could be
the difference between retiring early or not all for a trucker ;)

Dave, there is always room for improvement.
Truckers will invest serious money for 1 more mpg at 6 mpg.
